It looks pretty, and like a competent adaptation of the comic (but could a movie ever be as good as the comic it's based on?) I hate the slow motion (people think it's badass, but I think it's boring and overly dramatic) and the music (electric guitar?!?!?!)

“Mark Steven Johnson, who has just signed a deal with HBO to adapt the popular Vertigo comic Preacher into an hourlong series, told SCI FI Wire that he plans to turn each issue of the comic into a single episode, which will be as close to the original source material as possible. ”I gave the comics, and I said, ‘Every issue is an hour,’“ Johnson said at a preview of his upcoming film Ghost Rider in Hollywood, Calif., on Nov. 30. ”And it's exactly the book. … I had my meeting yesterday, and Garth Ennis is on the phone, and we're all in the room, and Garth is like, ‘You don’t have to be so beholden to the comic.' And I'm like, ‘No, no, no. It’s got to be like the comic.' So that's what's so brilliant about it. It's just like, HBO, who else would do it but them? Nobody. … HBO is just like, ‘Bring it on.’“”
